Granted
The veteran's claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to service-connected disabilities has been granted. The Board found that the veteran is unable to secure and follow a substantially gainful occupation because of his service-connected conditions.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that the veteran's service-connected disabilities render him unable to secure and maintain substantially gainful employment, based on medical evidence and the veteran's testimony.
